3. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION

For cell

- GHS Classification : Not availabel

(This products is outside the scope of GHS system since it's considered as an "article".)

For the battery cell, chemical materials are stored in a hermetically sealed metal or metal laminated plastic case, designed to withstand temperatures and pressures encountered during normal use.

As a result, during normal use, there is no physical danger of ignition or explosion and chemical danger of hazardous materials' leakage.

However, if exposed to a fire, added mechanical shocks, decomposed, added electric stress by miss-use, the gas release vent will be operated. The battery cell case will be breached at the extreme, hazardous materials may be released.

Moreover, if heated strongly by the surrounding fire, acrid gas may be emitted.

- Most important hazard and effects

Human health effects

• Inhalation : The steam of the electrolyte has an anesthesia action and stimulates a respiratory tract.
• Skin contact : The steam of the electrolyte stimulates a skin. The electrolyte skin contact causes a sore and stimulation on the skin.
• Eye contact : The steam of the electrolyte stimulates eyes. The electrolyte eye contact causes a sore and stimulation on the eye. Especially, substance that causes a strong inflammation of the eyes is contained.
• Environmental effects : Since a battery pack remains in the environment, do not throw out it into the environment.

Specific hazards

If the electrolyte contacts with water, it will generate detrimental hydrogen fluoride.

Since the leaked electrolyte is inflammable liquid, do not bring close to fire.

For molding case

According to GHS Classification

• Classification : Not Classification
• Possible hazards : No specific dangers known

4. FIRST-AID MEASURES

For cell

Spilled internal cell materials

- Inhalation :	Make the victim blow his/her nose, gargle. Seek medical attention if necessary.
- Skin contact :	Remove contaminated clothes and shoes immediately. Wash extraneous matter or contact region with soap and plenty of water immediately.
- Eye contact :	Do not rub eyes. Immediately flush eyes with water continuously for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical attention immediately.

A battery cell and spilled internal cell materials

- Ingestion :

Make the victim vomit. When it is impossible or the feeling is not well after vomiting, seek medical attention.

For molding case

- Inhalation :	If fumes are inhaled, remove person to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, get medical attention.
- Ingestion :	This product does not show significant acute toxicity. Get medical attention if considerable amounts of this product are ingested.

- Skin contact : Wash contaminated skin with soap and water after contact with processing vapors and fumes. Immediately cool contaminated skin with water and get medical attention after contact with molten resin.

- Eye contact : Flush the eyes with plenty of water without rubbing the eyes with hands. Get medical attention if irritation persists.

5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURE

For cell

• Suitable extinguishing media : Plenty of water, carbon dioxide gas, nitrogen gas, chemical powder fire extinguishing medium, and fire foam.
• Specific hazards : Corrosive gas may be emitted during fire.
• Specific methods of fire-fighting : When the battery burns with other combustibles simultaneously, take fire-extinguishing method which corresponds to the combustibles. Extinguish a fire from the windward as much as possible.
• Special protective equipment for firefighters
• Respiratory protection : Respiratory equipment of a gas cylinder style or protection – against - dust mask.
• Hand protection : Protective gloves.
• Eye protection : Goggle or protective glasses designed to protect against liquid splashes.
• Skin and body protection : Protective cloth.

For molding case

- Special firefighting procedures

This product is a combustible thermoplastic material which will melt and drip when ignited and gives off combustion product mainly consisting of carbon dioxide carbon monoxide. Formation of traces of aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, aldehydes, acids, phenol and phenol derivatives may occur. Fire-men have to wear self-containing breathing apparatus.

- Extinguishing media : Water spray or other Class A extinguishing agent.

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Spilled internal cell materials, such as electrolyte leaked from a battery cell, are carefully dealt with according to the followings.

• Precautions for human body :
  Remove spilled materials with protective equipment (protective glasses and protective gloves). Do not inhale the gas as much as possible. Moreover, avoid touching with as much as possible.
• Environmental precautions :
  Do not throw out into the environment.
• Method of cleaning up :
  The spilled solids are put into a container. The leaked place is wiped off with dry cloth.
• Prevention of secondary hazards : Avoid re-scattering. Do not bring the collected materials close to fire.

In general for molding case

Sweep or gather up product and place in proper container for disposal or recovery. Do not discard in sewers or waterways because fish may eat pallets, resulting in the obstruction of their digestive tracts.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

- Handling suggestions

For cell

• Do not connect the positive terminal to the negative terminal with electrical wire or chain.
• Avoid polarity reverse connection when installing the battery to an instrument.
• Do not wet the battery with water, seawater, drink or acid; or expose to strong oxidizer.
• Do not damage or remove the battery case.
• Keep the battery away from heat and fire.
• Do not disassemble or reconstruct the battery; or solder the battery directly.
• Do not give a mechanical shock or deform.
• Do not use unauthorized charger or other charging method. Terminate charging when the charging process doesn't end within specified time.
• In the case of charging, use only dedicated charger or charge according to the conditions specified by IDX.

For molding case

Avoid breathing processing fumes and vapors. Processing fumes and vapors may cause eye, skin and respiratory tract irritation, and in case of overexposure, nausea and headache. Clean dust form cutting and sanding operation to prevent its accumulation, since it may cause spark due to statics electricity or dust explosion. Properly ground air transportation lines including hoppers, bad filters to prevent accumulation of static electricity.

- Storage

For cell

• Do not store the battery with metalware, water, seawater, strong acid or strong oxidizer.
• Make the charge amount 30\~50% then store at room temperature or less (temperature= -20\~35 degree C) in a dry (humidity: 45\~85%) place. Avoid direct sunlight, high temperature, and high humidity.
• Use insulative and adequately strong packaging material to prevent short circuit between positive and negative terminal when the packaging breaks during normal handling. Do not use conductive or easy to break packaging material.

For molding case

Store this product in place not subject to direct sunlight or elevated temperatures or where there are no ignition sources. Take measures to prevent an accident due to static electricity from occurring.

8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION (WHEN THE ELECTROLYTE LEAKS)

For cell

• Control parameters
  ACGIH has not been mentioned control parameter of electrolyte.
• Personal protective equipment
• Respiratory protection : Respirator with air cylinder, dust mask
• Hand protection : Protective gloves
• Eye protection : Goggle or protective glasses designed to protect against liquid splashes
